A few adjustments have been made to the design to make the extruder easier to set-up and use. Also, tweaks have been made to get a much cleaner 3D Print.

Is there any reason why this can't be adapted for 3mm filament? Was it done in openscad and if it was, is it possible to get the source to make the changes?

3mm version remixed by Thinkyhead: http://www.thingiverse.com/thi...

That filament guide in the picture seems like it's perfect to build this. I can't seem to find it anywhere. Does anyone happen to know where it came from?

Why the change from the model boat part for the drive gear?

The QU-BD Raptor gear and the MK7 gear perform much better when there is difficulties with filament or the hot end.

I think it's just best to have the best part for the job to cut hours of tuning going forward.
